fl message from Rick fflolitor
Superintendent
It’s been a challengingvear for the
Jefferson County School District and
I’d like to kick off the summerwith a
sincerethank you to the teachersand
staff who have worked tirelessly to
stay focused on our students,their
improvements and success.The two
m ain challengesour district has faced are in the areas of
funding and student achievement.I’m proud to report that
we’ve had success in both.
The biggest story for this year is our amazing student
achievement results. As a result of our on-going Read to
Succeed efforts, we have more studentsreading at grade level
than we have ever seen. The improiements have shown up in
five grade levels. We know this is the direct result of our teams
who have been working hard to engage students at an
individual level.
In terms of budget,we have all been asked to do more with
less, but we continueto stay focusedon students and are proud
to be one of the few school districtsacross our state that did not
cut student days. Un fortunately pur funding issues will
continue to be a challengeas we start moving toward the
2011-12 schoolyear. Our goal is to use our resources to best
meet the needs of our $tudentsand communities.
Thanks to our familiesandcommunity members for
supporting our efforts. Have a great summer and we look
forwardto hearingfrom you next year.
